Received this Chocnut butter from Louie and Des! So happy there are local alternatives to the Cookie butter. Because Trader Joe’s limited their cookie butter, other businesses are benefitting
Heart2Heart is happy to meet the pretty lady behind this yummy goody 🙂 Special delivery from Grace Ongpin herself. How can she be so slim with all the yummy cooking that she does??
Apparently there is Flat Tops butter too! I love flat tops!! Really brings back childhood memories 🙂
And her latest creation!! Three Cheese spread!!! Made out of Queso de bola, cream cheese and cheddar cheese!!
Christmas Packaging
Grace is also the one behind the yummy Wagyu Shawarma
and pizzas – Pizza de Grazzia in Salcedo Market
They also have cocktail shawarma which you can order and she will deliver
You can also buy her bottled goodies there at the Salcedo Market every Saturday

We also visited Covadonga! I am so glad to be with my parents and their friends, because they always look for churches to visit. I love visiting churches
On the way there I saw this nice bride with a hanging cross

And finally lunch!! Enjoying a lot of the seafood being on the Northern coast of Spain!
Dad and Mom got one of these set meals – the Especial ala Plancha which was very worth it!
The arroz dishes were very reasonable and good for two already! We were happy because we have been wanting to have some sort of Paella
Delicacy from the area- Quesada Pasiega – Cantabrian Style Cheesecake

We also passed by the very first house Gaudi built in Cantabria. Not as “gaudy” as I expected but still a lot of detail outside and inside the house

Driving out of Santander on our way to our next city, Oviedo. We stopped by Santillian on the way which is part of the Camino so you can see some pilgrims passing by. A very nice quaint town. I love walking through the little towns in Europe
I love looking at the delicacies of each town

We only stayed overnight in Santander and so we had one meal and it was a very very good meal!!! A small restaurant
with no frills 🙂 We were very cozy in our table since the place was quite small, but it was worth it!!! That is the owner there in the photo and she was so busy helping out!
Finally gambas!! SUPER YUM! and calamares that was so fresh and so good!!! Dad was happy to have one of his favorite Spanish wines, Antonio Barbadillo
My dad was also very happy he finally had his percebes! I think this is a guy thing because it was only the guys who ate it! and they enjoyed so much! 🙂
Fresh lobster that was so so good!!!!!! We were really so happy 🙂 They offered other fresh seafood but we were already full
All the desserts were good too! Tocino del Cielo, Leche Flan and local pastries

Then we finally arrive at Santander! And yes, where Banco Santander is based 🙂
We walked around a little before dinner
I love the old style elevators that even have benches so you can sit 🙂
This was the highlight of the room!
Buffet breakfast before checking out. We only stayed one night
